Why did Mendel prevent his plants from self-pollinating?
To control the crossing of the traits.Because his experiments were aimed at what happened when you cross pollinated the plants with different characteristics. Self-pollination would have meant that his experiments would not have worked.
How is a nectary adapted for insect pollination?
Nectar is insect pollinated. Pollinating insects include moths, bees, and butterflies. The nectary is the part of the flower that secrets the nectar.
